Photos: Meet Bodhi, the Dog that models menswear for famous clothing brands.

Culled
Four year old Bodhi doesn't do what most dogs do! He has a flying career as a model in a top clothing brand in New york. He gets paid good money to model for menswear brand like Coach. See some of his photoshoots below. He has become a social media sensation with about 140,000 followers on Instagram! According to the owners,
“We didn’t have any epic plans when we started
our blog,” said Yena, who has worked as a
fashion designer for Ralph Lauren. “We were
bored one Saturday afternoon so we decided to
pass the time by dressing up our handsome
Shiba in serious menswear.”
“Everyone who has a dog has put clothes on their
dog at some point, just to goof around,” added
Dave, who has a decade of experience as a
professional graphic designer. “We just found out
that when we put clothes on him, he lit up, he
started posing for us.”
They posted the pictures online, and according to
Yena: “The response was unreal, so the next day
was spent putting together a Tumblr. The
following day, our Tumblr was featured on GQ
Magazine’s website and it just snowballed from
there.” Soon, the fashion-savvy canine amassed an army
of followers and there was no looking back after
that. Bodhi started receiving countless requests
for collaborations with fashion labels.
“Initially we got some criticism from people who
thought he might be uncomfortable in human
clothes,” said Dave. “But it turned into people
criticising his outfits and telling us what shirt
would look better with what tie – and that’s
when we knew we were successful.” And it
appears that Bodhi quite enjoys being
photographed in an array of stylish outfits. He’s
such a natural model, and he really does seem to
know how to work with the camera.
